S.C. Dem chair: Palin primary qualification is she hasn't had an abortion
politico ^

Posted on 09/10/2008 12:30:28 PM PDT by flyfree

South Carolina Democratic chairwoman Carol Fowler sharply attacked Sarah Palin today, saying John McCain had chosen a running mate " whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion.”

Palin is an opponent of abortion rights and gave birth to her fifth child, Trig, earlier this year after finding out during her pregnancy that the baby had Down syndrome.

Fowler told my colleague Alex Burns in an interview that the selection of an opponent of abortion rights would not boost McCain among many women.

“Among Democratic women and even among independent women, I don’t think it helped him,” she said.

Told of McCain's boost in the new ABC/Washington Post among white women following the Palin pick, Fowler said: "Just anecdotally, I believe that those white women are Republican women anyway."

They just can’t help themselves. The McCain campaign is hitting them with lightning jabs and they’re just falling apart.

“My, my, does someone sound awful jealous!
Sarah Palin is the Governor of Alaska. Who is Carol Fowler?”

I think she’s a community activist. That’s probably why she’s slamming Palin. Don’t you know community activists are qualified to handle the nuk-le-ar foosball?

No, she looks like a man!

P.S. Just how many abortions have you had, Carol?

The last thing Carol ever had to worry about was getting an abortion, if you know what I mean.

Does anyone know if this Carol Fowler is related to Don Fowler, who expressed joy at the prospect of Hurricane Gustav wiping out the GOP convention?

This perfectly illustrates my comments over the past few days about this nonsense - only one type of feminist -pro-abortion - FORGET CHOICE.
